COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 169/2006
of 31 January 2006
derogating from Regulation (EC) No 2375/2002 as regards the issue of import licences under tranche No 1 of subquota III for common wheat of a quality other than high quality
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1784/2003 of 29 September 2003 on the common organisation of the market in cereals (1), and in particular Article 12(1) thereof,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
Commission Regulation (EC) No 2375/2002 (2) opened an annual tariff quota of 2 981 600 tonnes of common wheat of a quality other than high quality. That quota is divided into three subquotas. |
|
(2) |
Article 3(3) of Regulation (EC) No 2375/2002 fixed a quantity of 592 900 tonnes for tranche No 1 of subquota III for the period 1 January to 31 March 2006. |
|
(3) |
Commission Regulation (EC) No 4/2006 (3) laid down the percentage of import licences that could be issued on the basis of the information in the Commission’s possession on 2 January 2006. However, one Member State subsequently informed the Commission that a large number of applications submitted by its operators were inadmissible. As a result, against all expectations, considerable quantities remain available for the period concerned. Those quantities should therefore be laid down and a derogation made from the first sentence of Article 3(4) of Regulation (EC) No 2375/2002 by authorising, exceptionally, the lodging of new licence applications for these quantities in accordance with the rules laid down by Regulation (EC) No 2375/2002. |
|
(4) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
By way of derogation from the first sentence of Article 3(4) of Regulation (EC) No 2375/2002, import licence applications may be lodged from Monday, 6 February 2006 for the quantities of 464 879,874 tonnes available under subquota III referred to in Article 3(3) of Regulation (EC) No 2375/2002 for the period from 1 January to 31 March 2006.
The applications shall be lodged under the terms laid down by Regulation (EC) No 2375/2002, and in particular Article 5 thereof.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 February 2006.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
Done at Brussels, 31 January 2006.
